Pressing higher on the trigger = better accuracy

[Singh]

I prefer curved triggers to straight triggers on TDAs. It's easier for me to pull a conventionally curved trigger straight. I'm now thinking that the reason is related to the current discussion. The center of pressure on a curved trigger is higher and more in-line.

Boom. this. All I shoot is DA/SA pistol and revos, and all my triggers are curved, so finger placement is automatic. Accuracy has never been an issue.

This an interesting discussion on how to squeeze accuracy out of a striker trigger, specifically Glocks. I could never get the same accuracy out of G17s/G19s/G23s that I could with similar DA/SA pistols. I'm reading this thread with academic interest.


now for some good-natured snark

I would be careful in placing too much reliance on a hardware solution for a software problem. While at times, I feel a preference for the 365 curved or straight trigger, in my 25 yard group and array shooting, I see no difference in speed and accuracy between the two triggers. Also, a curved trigger does not necessarily place your trigger finger as high as it might go. My finger placement on an OEM Glock trigger is higher than the natural point in the curve.

Tried this a bit today in live fire with my newish G47. Could only shoot at 15 yards, because there were a bunch of folks on the rifle line, and the pistol side is pretty limited.



Six rounds instead of five because in the first couple of tries, I noticed the first hand-cycled round was impacting pretty noticeably distal to the rest of the group. So I loaded six intending to shoot one on steel than five on paper, but ended up shooting six instead.

Not worried about the POI, the pistol is zero'd with 147gr HST, and this was my mid-range 147gr FMJ load.

That shows promise!

I will definitely be trying this method next rage session!

My range sessions also occasionally become rage sessions...

Yep.
